I never understand shorts... Why?

[systematictrader]

The market is never to low to short.

In 2000, the NDX100 was down 35% off its high, many took out a 2nd mortgage & racked up CC loans to buy the dip. To bad it plunges down another 49%.

In the dot com bull, Nortel was a core tech holding like the FANG stocks are today.

True that, just look at platinum today, never too high to buy either, look at palladium rally since the last few years,,,one day to eliminate the thinking is using the MACD, weekly prefered on indexes,, although daily can still work, problem is, most people including myself get bored because even on a daily signal it stays in force usually for 25-40 days

"US coronavirus: More than 6,000 are dead as NY governor to sign executive order to redistribute medical supplies "

So long as USA continues to increases deaths, markets will drop, more deaths equals less business taking place and more restrictions of people being able to buy or work. When stats start flattening out, market might have continued violent moves both ways, but geared to upside. Least that is how I believe it should happen. Grains, Meats and Softs should follow. Financials and Dollar should go down.

Energies may have bottomed.

Taken over a year for US Dollar to weaken, but with Biden admin, should continue. Grains had nice run up and most have reversed. Financials going up as I see it at some point deep rally to sell.
Energies should continue to go up especially Nat Gas.

I am glad I started trading in 1978, cause I think with over abundance of information and 1000's of different ways to trade the markets today, it be daunting for a new Commodity trader.
